Hello,
I'd like to read all events from a exchange user's calendar. I can read the main one, but I don't know where I can submit the name of the other folder/calendar.

this is the part I am using:
$client = new Client($host, $username, $password, $version);
$client->setTimezone($timezone);

$request = new FindItemType();
$request->ParentFolderIds = new NonEmptyArrayOfBaseFolderIdsType();

// Return all event properties.
$request->ItemShape = new ItemResponseShapeType();
$request->ItemShape->BaseShape = DefaultShapeNamesType::ALL_PROPERTIES;

$folder_id = new DistinguishedFolderIdType();
$folder_id->Id = DistinguishedFolderIdNameType::CALENDAR;
$request->ParentFolderIds->DistinguishedFolderId[] = $folder_id;

$request->CalendarView = new CalendarViewType();
$request->CalendarView->StartDate = $start_date->format('c');
$request->CalendarView->EndDate = $end_date->format('c');

Can anybody give me a hint? The other calendars are called "birthday", "Event". Can I submit the real name or do I have to get an ID?

Thanks for your help.

Rather than using a distinguished folder id, you need to pass the id of the calendar folder you wish to retrieve the events for. If you don't know that id, you can look it up using the FindFolder operation. It will be a sub-folder of the DistinguishedFolderIdNameType::CALENDAR folder.

Also, in the future, please complete the issue template in full and properly format your code using GFM.

@mblonski2015 - Not sure if you found your answer. What you need is a user with privileges or impersonation rights to the "room" or mailbox you want to look at. Using the newest build, you could try the following:

`<?php
require_once '../../../../../vendor/autoload.php';

use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Client;
use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Request\FindItemType;

use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\ArrayType\NonEmptyArrayOfBaseFolderIdsType;

use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Enumeration\DefaultShapeNamesType;
use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Enumeration\DistinguishedFolderIdNameType;
use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Enumeration\ResponseClassType;

use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Type\CalendarViewType;
use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Type\DistinguishedFolderIdType;
use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Type\ItemResponseShapeType;
use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Type\EmailAddressType;
use \jamesiarmes\PhpEws\Enumeration\ItemQueryTraversalType;

// Replace with the date range you want to search in. As is, this will find all
// events within the current calendar year.
$start_date = new DateTime('September 25 00:00:00');
$end_date = new DateTime('September 30 23:59:59');
$timezone = 'Eastern Standard Time';

// Set connection information.
$host = 'outlook.youraddress.ca';
$username = 'bren1818'; //your account with permissions
$password = 'MyAwesomePassword'; // your password
$version = Client::VERSION_2013_SP1; //version of exchange

$client = new Client($host, $username, $password, $version);
$client->setTimezone($timezone);

$request = new FindItemType();
$request->Traversal = ItemQueryTraversalType::SHALLOW;
$request->ItemShape = new ItemResponseShapeType();
$request->ItemShape->BaseShape = DefaultShapeNamesType::ALL_PROPERTIES;

$request->CalendarView = new CalendarViewType();
$request->CalendarView->StartDate = $start_date->format('c');
$request->CalendarView->EndDate = $end_date->format('c');
$folder_id = new DistinguishedFolderIdType();
$folder_id->Id = DistinguishedFolderIdNameType::CALENDAR;
$folder_id->Mailbox = new EmailAddressType();
$folder_id->Mailbox->EmailAddress = "sharedroomtest@wlu.ca";
$request->ParentFolderIds->DistinguishedFolderId[] = $folder_id;
$response = $client->FindItem($request);
$response_messages = $response->ResponseMessages->FindItemResponseMessage;
//var_dump($response_messages);

//if( $response_messages ){
foreach ($response_messages as $response_message) {
// Make sure the request succeeded.
if ($response_message->ResponseClass != ResponseClassType::SUCCESS) {
$code = $response_message->ResponseCode;
$message = $response_message->MessageText;
//fwrite(
// STDERR,
echo "Failed to search for events with "$code: $message"\n";
//);
continue;
}

// Iterate over the events that were found, printing some data for each.
$items = $response_message->RootFolder->Items->CalendarItem;
foreach ($items as $item) {
    $id = $item->ItemId->Id;
    $start = new DateTime($item->Start);
    $end = new DateTime($item->End);
    $output = 'Found event ' . $item->ItemId->Id . "<br />"
        . '  Change Key: ' . $item->ItemId->ChangeKey . "<br />"
        . '  Title: ' . $item->Subject . "<br />"
        . '  Start: ' . $start->format('l, F jS, Y g:ia') . "<br />"
        . '  End:   ' . $end->format('l, F jS, Y g:ia') . "<br /><hr />";

    echo $output . '<br />';
}

}
//}`

As I mentioned in my previous comment, please format all code using GFM.

In your event find request, you need to replace the $request->ParentFolderIds->DistinguishedFolderId with $request->ParentFolderIds->FolderId[], using the id for the appropriate calendar.

@jamesiarmes Thank you for the response, had to re-read what you wrote to see the difference between what you had said and I had written. That being said, when I tried using $request->ParentFolderIds->FolderId[] I do not get any event data back, while when I use $request->ParentFolderIds->DistinguishedFolderId[] I do get data back...
